The game will continue to sell. The initial rush for the game has passed, and now it will enjoy a steady stream of sales over the next few months. But it makes me wonder, as the week isn't over yet, what it will accomplish in the next week or so. Will it see another rise in sales, or will it stay relatively around this mark?

Only time will tell. One can't ignore the fact that it sold 200k its first week, though, which is impressive for an RPG.

Best selling LEVEL 5 JRPG on PS2 was Rogue Galaxy, which sold "only" 350k(IN JAPAN). WKC is selling faster on less than 3 million install base, while RG had 20 million install base. Also WKC has BEST second week of any other PS3 game in Japan so far, yes that includes MGS4 etc. So i don't know why is someone trying to spin this into something bad. "O look slip to 6th place!!!" DUH!!! What did you expect? fact that it debue on 1 place last week is milestone! PS3 game, new IP? Haters just stop, grow up, get over yourself, really stop.

Dissidia's first week sales = 489,000 Second week sales were 176,000. That's a drop of 313,000, or 64%.

Same percentage drop as White Knight, from first to second week. Was there an article made to point that out? No, of course not. Because it's only news when PS3 games have sales decline. Even though every game has a sales decline after the debut week. Gah.

Poor Sony fans... Trying their hardest to turn a flop into a success but stating numbers that if on 360 or Wii they'd call a flop.. Examples? Well 360 has what a tenth of the PS3 install base in Japan? yet they can manage 200k first week and its a flop PS3 with 3million consoles manages 200k and its the greatest selling game of all time.. Just pathetic. Lets put it into perspective. Wii Music sold better than WKS. IF Wii music outsold it, it cant be good. Of course the only thing poor Sony fans can do is pull up 360 numbers, knowing full well that PS3 has a heavy lead on 360 in Japan so there is no comparison really.

I guess since the 360 has a lead over the PS3 in the US we should discredit and adjust their sales figures as well, am I right? I am just going by Voiceofreason's logic here. BTW, I would really enjoy a response to ViceKingz question as well.
